## Indications for Use

The Mayo Clinic BC-10 3.0T wrist coil will be used in conjunction with several commercially available MRI systems to more accurately image a variety of maladies associated with the hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow. Maladies include, but are not limited to, carpal tunnel syndrome, nerve compression, ligament injuries, tendon abnormalities, and scarring. Its 10cm diameter design governs the specific area of the body, which can be imaged.

## Device Story

The Mayo Clinic BC-10 is a transmit/receive, high-pass, quadrature birdcage MR coil; designed for imaging small extremities (hand, wrist, forearm, elbow) with a 10cm diameter field of view. Used in clinical settings with commercially available 3.0T MRI systems; operated by MRI technicians or radiologists. The coil receives radiofrequency signals from the patient's anatomy during MRI scanning; these signals are processed by the host MRI system to generate diagnostic images. The device provides high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) imaging for small extremity anatomy; assists clinicians in identifying pathologies like nerve compression or ligament injuries; facilitates accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device's safety and reliability were verified against predetermined acceptance criteria. Performance data was previously documented in the abbreviated 510(k) submission K031119, confirming substantial equivalence to existing extremity coils.

## Technological Characteristics

High-pass, quadrature, transmit/receive (T/R) birdcage coil. 10cm diameter form factor optimized for small extremity anatomy. No external tuning required. Compatible with 3.0T MRI systems. Passive hardware component; no software or energy source integral to the coil itself.

## Regulatory Identification

A magnetic resonance diagnostic device is intended for general diagnostic use to present images which reflect the spatial distribution and/or magnetic resonance spectra which reflect frequency and distribution of nuclei exhibiting nuclear magnetic resonance. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. The device includes hydrogen-1 (proton) imaging, sodium-23 imaging, hydrogen-1 spectroscopy, phosphorus-31 spectroscopy, and chemical shift imaging (preserving simultaneous frequency and spatial information).

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A magnetic resonance imaging disposable kit intended for use with a magnetic resonance diagnostic device only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

## Predicate Devices

- MRI Devices 1.5T phased array wrist coil
- GE Signa 1.5T birdcage, high-pass, quadrature T/R head coil

## Reference Devices

- Mayo Clinic BC-10 ([K031119](/device/K031119.md))
